Was surprised and shocked! Nice going Hector on the second spot. Of course, now I am posting #3, so we can't have the muggles comments in solve order now.

I don’t always do the MMMM. Perhaps I shouldn’t have submitted since I had a big nudge. However, I’m not in the running for anything as I’ve only done a few of these.

Within a few minutes after submission. And I see your name on the leaderboard, so confirmed.

What is the beam me up equivalent for the music metas? I’m in Margaritaville looking for my lost shaker of salt. BTW, strong muggle showing today!

Amazing puzzle! Took me all day but I still got in at #11.
Also, I'm top of the contest leaderboard until damefox and LL solve this one :-)

The penny has not dropped in my jukebox yet....
The site is just a web page, a meeting place, a clubhouse - it's the group that's special.

Solved! Not my favorite of the year, but pretty cool once you find the mechanism.

I've got the grid... mostly. I'm not quite sure what Pete's doing here.

**Please ignore this post.** Just posting here hoping the crossword gods will bless me with post-inspiration. On this and the Fireball. **Sorry to bother you.**

Worked diligently for a few hours Tuesday afternoon, on what I was sure was the thing to do! Of all the nerve!! Turns out it didn’t lead anywhere!
Back to 34A Stares stupidly
But will set aside for the WSJ meta at 4:00.

It may have been inadvertent, but this seems like a pretty good one to me....

Only 24 correct entries as of Thursday AM. Certainly is playing hard to get. I thought that I had a path, but no picture is emerging for me, either.

This was hard and not my kind of meta. I had far too much help to submit.

Found it!
My lost shaker of salt, that is.
Though I'm feeling like the previous poster. I submitted ... but I got a VERY big nudge from another previous poster. If I end up being high on the leaderboard (not likely), I'll ask Pete to deny me the correct answer on this one.

This feels like one of those magic eye pictures - where I can kind of sense something there but can't bring it into focus.

Whew, I'm on the board, finally. I had a flash of inspiration last night while brushing my teeth, tried it out, and to my amazement it worked. This one required a good amount of work.

I think my visual impairment is working against me. I'm not sure I'm on the right track at all.
